^^^ I feel your pain. I like to think I'm good at coming up with little hooks - but writing a longer form tune doesn't come naturally. I think I just need to put the time in, with the right mindset - stoopit real life keeps getting in the way.
Either that or just write 15 minute krautrock/motorik epics.
This isn’t a finished track, but inspired by a mates awesome performance at the Bristol electronic open mic last weekend I thought I’d start knocking some ideas into shape for the next one.
I’m not a great fan of ‘press play and dance’ style laptop sets, I want to do something where I’ve got the freedom to evolve a performance as I feel it on the night, so my plan is to build a suitable Ableton session with more than enough material for a couple of 20-30 minute sets, and then just jam it on the night.
I spent a couple of hours post-midnight last night building some glitched up psy loops for one tracks worth and just chucked in some placeholder drums to give me a basic groove to work with.
Obviously I need to do a load more yet but this was the result of my first jam with that session last night..
